Get to know fellow students at a society welcome gathering. Meet someone keen to help organise events, swap ideas for society activities or chat about a shared interest in photography.
How to run this activity
Meet people at the gathering and tick a square when a willing participant matches its description. Different squares can involve different people. Do not ask anyone to share private details or disclose beliefs.
Facilitator guidance
Give a brief example, encourage introductions and make participation voluntary, with the option to pass. Check the group size, participants’ interests and whether the squares fit your gathering; consider a 3×3 board for small groups. On a 5×5 board, aim for a line of five rather than a full card. Never require personal disclosures.
Safety and inclusion
Use inclusive language and do not pressure anyone to share private information. Offer opt-outs and alternative squares, and check that the activities are accessible. Choose varied squares that allow achievable winning lines for your group.
